I used to be able to click: Firefox -> Preferences and get the Preference window. Now Firefox Preferences opens as a tab. I don't know how or why it changed. But i don't like it. How can i revert back to the old way of opening the preference window?

Hi, I'm not familiar with Mac but I think this should work - it does in Windows: Type about:config into the address bar, press Enter, accept the warning, scroll down to browser.preferences.inContent and double click to change 'Value' from True to False, taking care not to alter anything else. You may then need to restart Firefox.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.
